The Regimental Museum of The Royal Welsh, Brecon

Opened in 1935 and formerly known as the South Wales Borderers Museum, this is recognised as one of finest regimental museums in Britain.

The museum charts the history of the Royal Regiment of Wales, founded in 1689 as the 23rd and 24th Regiments of Foot and subsequently re-named the South Wales Borderers, Welch Regiment and Monmouthshire Regiment. It includes displays relating to the many campaigns they were involved in such as the Zulu War.
